Lovely Valle at Billingen

The remarkable drumlin landscape in the Valle area dates from the Ice Age. When the ice melted some 10 000 years ago, nature took over. Big rivers topped by icebergs and filled with gravel and sand roared through, leaving gravel and moraine hills, soft ridges and waterfilled lowlands. The result is an unusual kame landscape with few counterparts elsewhere in Sweden.

Seven nature reserves in one go

The unique nature and setting of the Valle area lies on the western slope of the Billingen plateau. In only 2 700 acres lie seven nature reserves each with distinct flora and fauna nestled in an old cultural landscape with pastures, field stone mounds and stone walls, hardwood copses, calcareous bogs with orchids, flowering fields and peaceful fishing lakes. Valle offers a magnificent nature in a fantastically varied landscape, rich in species. There are signposted trails and info signs describing the area´s geology and history.
